How the Real Pilots of Mercury 13 Made the Case for the U.S. to Send Women to Space
The iconic line has become so familiar that it might be hard to imagine it any other way: as the first man on the moon put it, his achievement was “one small step for man.” But what if the first human being on the lunar surface had been a woman? That’s a central question asked by the Netflix documentary Mercury 13, directed by David Sington and Heather Walsh, premiering Friday — and, say the filmmakers, a question that’s still worth asking even decades after the last moon landing. The “13” in question were a group of experienced female pilots — Jerrie Cobb, Janey Hart, Jan Di...

Two-Thirds of Doctors Experience Burnout. Here ’s How To Stop It
LAGUNA NIGUEL, Calif.—In the United States, nearly two-thirds of physicians suffer from burnout. The reasons range from tough clinical hours to arduous amounts of paperwork that take up more of a doctor’s time than seeing patients. “A third of doctors [say] they would not pick medicine again if they had a choice,” Dr. Toby Cosgrove, former president and CEO of the Cleveland Clinic said during a panel at Fortune’s Brainstorm Health conference. That issue is becoming increasingly apparent to medical leaders. Dr. Laurie Glimcher, the president and CEO of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, said her...

Macho pursuits dominate assessments of risky behavior, reinforcing gender stereotypes
(University of Exeter) Women can be just as risky as men -- or even riskier -- when the conventional macho measures of daring -- such as betting vast sums on a football game -- are replaced by less stereotypical criteria, according to new research led by the University of Exeter.

One Undeniable Factor In Gun Violence: Men
Another mass shooting in America, another round of questions. Was the shooter a terrorist or a lone wolf (read: “Is he Muslim or not?”). Did he have a political agenda? Was he mentally ill? Why would someone do this? A question we never ask: Was the shooter a man? The answer is always the same. Of 134 mass shooters who’ve preyed on Americans since 1966, just three have been women, making mass shooting a 98% male enterprise. More broadly, 90% of murderers are men — firearms are used in close to 70 percent of homicides. Much has been written about the relationship between masculinity and guns: how gu...
